Watching Li Shimin ride away, the four warriors breathed a sigh of relief.
They were really afraid that the King of Qin would suddenly kill someone, so at least two of the four of them would be replaced!
Fortunately, there was no fight in the end...
"Li! Shi! Min!"
Li Yuanji's expression turned extremely ugly, and he growled three words from between his teeth.
Every word is filled with hatred and resentment!
This time, not only did he not bury this abominable second brother here, but he also took control of him and fell into passivity.
He hates it!
"Your Highness, if King Qin informs Your Majesty of this matter, he will send someone to investigate in depth."
The leading warrior came close to him and whispered,
"Then will we..."
Li Yuanji's backhand was just a mouthful, and he slapped it on his face with a bang!
"Useless things! Liu Da, what kind of trash are you looking for!"
He shouted angrily,
"You can't hit it at such a close range. It's such a long way away. Any other dog would be better than this piece of trash!"
The strong man named Liu Da covered his face and felt a sense of grievance in his heart.
Wasn't that why you pressed him so hard that he had to take action?
In such a situation, it is difficult to aim in the first place, and if you are distracted, your mind will be confused, so how can you not deviate?
Although he was thinking this, Liu Da did not dare to say what was in his heart. He could only kneel on the ground and said in fear:
"It was a small oversight and I found a piece of trash."
"Your Highness, please punish me!"
Li Yuanji's face twitched.
"If I kill you now, what's the point!"
He yelled and cursed,
"Get out of here!"
"Yes, yes..." Liu Da then stood up, bowed his head and listened to the instruction obediently.
Li Yuanji's expression softened slightly, he straightened his collar, and whispered:
"That's all... your response just now was pretty good, but it ended up costing the life of the dark archer."
"If we keep his life, there will be endless troubles."
"Now that he is dead, there is no evidence to prove his death! Even if we want to investigate, we can't find my head."
Liu Dalian nodded.
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness. That's what a young man should do." He nodded and bowed hurriedly.
Li Yuanji nodded slightly.
"The fewer people who know about today's matter, the better. Those three people...you know what to do."
He whispered into Liu Da's ear, and then gave him a wink.
"...obey!"
Liu Da's heart trembled.
This is to kill the donkey, His Highness King Qi is really ruthless!
Those few behind him are all his brothers...
However, now he is a mud bodhisattva crossing the river. He cannot save himself and can only accept orders and survive.
Liu Da looked at the few warriors behind him who still didn't know what was going on, with a somewhat complicated expression.
Brothers, don’t blame the eldest brother for not being a human being. If you want to blame it, blame King Qi for not being a human being...
"Li Shimin, don't think you won..."
Li Yuanji narrowed his eyes and said softly,
"Liu Da, did you hear what King Qin said just now? What is destiny?"
Liu Da was slightly startled.
"heard it."
He recalled it for a moment and then said,
"It seems to say - 'He wants to kill me with this, but life and death are determined by fate, and I, Li Shimin, have my destiny' or something like that. I can't remember the rest clearly..."
Li Yuanji's eyes lit up and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
"You have a good memory!" He sneered, "What a Li Shimin, he actually claims destiny! Do you think you are the emperor!"
If one plan fails, there is another plan!
A poisonous plan has already been formed in his heart...
…
Lishan Palace.
Li Yuan took a nap on the couch, surrounded by beauties, fanning him and making tea. His life was extremely comfortable.
"Your Majesty, Lord Pei Ji would like to see you."
A voice came from the eunuch outside the palace.
"Tell him to come in." Li Yuan lay on the couch and turned over casually.
Da da.
"See Your Majesty."
Pei Ji entered the hall and bowed to Li Yuan.
"sit."
Li Yuan waved and said lazily,
"Make Pei Aiqing a cup of tea."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Pei Ji took the cup, bent down and sat down. After thanking him, he said, "Your Majesty, what you did today seems to me to be a little inappropriate..."
He pointed out Li Yuan's problem straight to the point without beating around the bush.
It can also be seen from this that Pei Ji is a little anxious.
If he hadn't been dragged to a drinking party by Xiao Yu and the others for an hour, he would have come to see him long ago!
"Um?"
Li Yuan opened his eyes, frowned slightly and said,
"What's wrong? Tell me."
Pei Ji leaned forward slightly and said seriously:
"Your Majesty's favors and rewards from King Qin are really too generous!"
"It's okay to invite him to ride on the dragon chariot, but why did you reward him with the red bow, one of the Nine Tins?"
"Do you know how much trouble this will cause in the court and among the people?"
Li Yuan groaned and straightened up with the help of the maid.
"What's wrong with my child riding in the same car with me?"
He said displeasedly,
"As for Chi Gong, he deserves it too!"
"Not to mention that he won first place in the hunt today, even if it is used to commend him for his achievements in bringing peace to the world, it is completely appropriate! It is in line with etiquette and law!"
"Pei Qing, I know you have never liked King Qin very much, but this time, you are really narrow-minded."
Pei Ji's face stiffened.
Is he narrow-minded?
What a narrow-minded person! If you continue like this, everyone will almost assume that you will be replaced by the crown prince!
"Okay, okay... Your Majesty, even if I am narrow-minded, you should not favor one thing over another!"
He said again,
"You were so kind to the King of Qin, but you also disgraced His Highness the Crown Prince in public, making him unable to stand down in public and almost becoming a laughing stock!"
"Do you know how much of a blow this will have to the prestige of His Highness the Crown Prince? Especially when compared with King Qin... Doesn't this mean that the Crown Prince is not as good as a prince?"
Li Yuan was slightly silent.
"I have no other intentions, I just want to promote the completion of the project."
He said,
"This hunting is the least of his concerns! The pile of things he hunted is obviously just to make fun of me."
"As a prince, you can't just focus on martial arts. You should also focus on martial arts."
"Are the words I warned him wrong?"
Pei Ji shook his head.
"Of course Your Majesty is right, but you can give advice in private, so why put it on the table?"
He smiled bitterly and said,
"You took the lead in exposing the prince's shortcomings. Will the subjects below still respect him?"
"Especially when compared with King Qin, it shows the prince's disadvantage!"
"Did you know that there is now a rumor among the ministers and the public that you are going to depose the crown prince and make King Qin the crown prince instead! It's just recently!"
Li Yuan started suddenly!
boom!
"Abolish the crown prince? That's nonsense!"
He blows his beard and stares,
"When did I say such a thing? Who is talking behind my back?"
"Find out and I somehow skinned him!"
Pei Ji felt relieved when he saw Li Yuan's fierce reaction.
It seems that Yi Chu did not mean what the emperor meant.
Damn it... He almost believed it when it was said that she had a nose and eyes!
